This viral picture from the Pushpa 2 set has gotten fans talking. The shot looks cinematic, and many are speculating that Warner could be playing a negative role or making a cameo appearance in the movie. Fans have connected this to Warner’s earlier interactions with Pushpa star Allu Arjun on social media. Warner commented on Arjun’s Instagram post announcing the film’s release date, playfully hinting that he might have a guest role in the movie.
Adding fuel to the fire, Warner has already made videos recreating iconic scenes and dialogues from Pushpa.
